MSI's AM2+ Motherboards Support AM3 Processors

Obviously, MSI's latest AM3 Gaming Series Motherboards are completely
ready to handle AMD's Phenom II processors, but what about those of you
still limping by with one of the company's AM2+ mobos? In an
announcement that will undoubtedly make your day, MSI has made
absolutely clear that its AMD AM2+ series of motherboards will indeed
support the all new Phenom II CPUs.

In order to make your board
compatible, you simply need to apply a BIOS update. That's it. No new
hardware. No soldering. No switching of DIP switches. Just a BIOS
update. As you well know, the AM3 processors check in with higher
frequencies, fast L3 cache, support for both DDR3 and DDR2 memory, new
C1E energy saving functionality and an "advanced architecture also
enhances its overclocking prowess."
